about 445. State associations are general,
and the New England Association of Deaf
Mutes is an important body. There are
more than fifty schools in the United
States, with 8, 600 teachers, and q National
Deaf Mute college at Washington, of which
Edward Gallaudet, another son Of the
great teacher, is president. These institu-
tions receive support from the national
and local governments, thanks to the
ardor with which Rev. T. II. Gallaudet
pleaded their cause before the legislatures.
Their benefactor's memory was honored
by the deaf mutes by the erection Of
statue at Hartford, some thirty years ago,
and So, 900 has now been raised, among
their own number, for the purpose Of
placing another statue ut Washington.
Tho manner in which Gallaudet was
led to pity and work for the deaf mutes
was peculiarly interesting, and the name
of little Alice Cogswell, of Hartford, is
inseparably associated with his achieve
ments. She was o neighbor' 'schild whom
Gallaudet, then young Congregational
minister, undertook to rescue from the
mental darkness consequent upon her
deafness, the result OF fever His expe-

In q lecture on Marine and Fresh Water
Fishes Mr. w. A. Carter said that fish have
the power of influencing one another by
sounds and action. He had observed shoal
of carp following the lead OF single one
which conducted them to 9 quantity OF food
at considerable distance away. He had
also noticed that certain fresh water fish,
such as trout, were subserVient to ruler,
which might be seen swimming at the head
Of his tribe. The same was possibly the case

1t was given out today that the net esti-
mated cost of the railroad would be $50. 0O0,-
200, on the basis of . capacity for carrying a
vessel of 6,0O0 tons, actual weight. This
would be about as Dig vessel as the Anchor
line steamship Furnessia. The Alaska, loaded,
would perhaps weigh 1000 tons, but no YES
sells as large as that are at present used in the
Asatic trade. The toll for transporting a
ship would be from 81 80 to 50 ton accord

estimate was $4,000, 900. The projectors of

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Showing for the Past Week as Reported
bv Dun & Co.


New York, July 30.-The business fail
sres during the last seven days number for
the United States 1862, and for Canada %, or
n total of 1S4, as compared with total of
172 last week and 179 the week previous to
the last and 1872 for the corresponding week
of last year. when the figures were: United
States, 10; Canada, %. Foreign commerce
is still unsatisfactory, while in domestic
trade the usual summer dulpess is increased
by variety of causes. Railroad earnings,
since the interstate law affected rates, afford
no reliable indication of the volume of traf-
fic, and publication of tonnage statistics has
been to a large extent suspended-which has
significance. Low prices delay movement of
wheat, and injury to corn hay and some
minor crops produces uncertainty. Wheat,
corn, oats, oil, beef and hogs are lower than
week ago. Corn at ID cents at New York,
and oats at 32 cents and beef at an average
of 81 30, do not encourage farmers to buy
! largely of the products of other industries.
Sugar rises little with the publication of
bullish statistics; spice dealers complain that
consumers do not come to time, and the
handlers of rice are not overworked. Oil
fell to 5i~4 cents, but has recovered little.
| Coal agents announce an advance of 10 cents
for August /, and that trade is supported by
an increasing demand
Interior reports nearly all note existing
dullness with hopes of large trade hereafter.
Money is in only fair demand, with no note
worthy change in rates, and collections fair,
with Improvement at one or two points. The
speculation in tobacco begins to advance
prices, and the rubber combination slowly
progresses toward completeness. Stocks have
been depressed, with signs of WEAKNESS on
the part Of holders The recent decisions of
the interstate commission have not cleared
up the more embarrassing questions regard
ing rates on competitive freight, and charges
of rate cutting on trunk lines indicate want
of agreement in construction of the law, with
some disappointment as to the volume of
traffic
